Make gifts, collect items, or advocate for the animals

  • Hold a dog and cat toy drive. See our wish list for ideas. Or make them yourself!
  • Organize a cat litter drive.
  • Collect canned dog & cat food.
  • Prepare a presentation for your class or scout troop on why adoption is the best way to find a new pet.
  • Start an “Animal Advocate” club at school.
  • For your next birthday party, ask your guests to bring an HSHV wish list item.
